Wow what a view!
You will never tire of the mesmerising views, whatever the weather.
Just lie in bed and enjoy those views.
The sandy beach in all its glory at low tide.
You are sure to enjoy dining al fresco from sunrise to sunset.
The kitchen-area is very well-equipped.
The open plan living/dining-room makes for a sociable holiday.
Plenty of room for everyone to chill out, relax and watch the sweep of the Eddystone Lighthouse in the distance.
A lovely spot to enjoy some holiday reading.
Why not treat yourself to a cream tea, jam on first please - we are in Cornwall!

An absolutely fantastic place to just sit, look out to sea, and switch off from all the craziness in this world!

2nd visit and weren't disappointed. Cannot fault cleanliness and decor. A great base for exploring the whole of the South East Cornwall and Devon.
Mr Fric July 2017
We spent a wonderful time and enjoyed the fantastic view. We are looking forward to our next vacation at Gulls Roost.

Lovely location and the beach was amazing. Footpaths to the beach that are close to the property needed to be navigated with care. For smaller dogs or people not so agile this could be a problem. Once on the beach, it's lovely, just take care getting to and from. Other footpaths lead to the beach and we did not explore these. They may be better, but the closest ones need a little care....

It should have been stated clearly that this place is not safe for children or animals as the house is on the main road with dangerous traffic and there is no fence around the house, therefore all children and dogs can be on the road in two seconds. Also the beds are horribly old and uncomfortable, including that super used sofa which is just unacceptable when one pays a thousand pounds for a week. We could not sleep well at night and by the morning everything was hurting, we could not sit and enjoy a movie either because the sofa was the arch enemy. At some point i was so desperate to sleep that I almost ended up on the dogs' memory-foam mattress. The double duvet and the tiny beds are also upsetting. It should have been also mentioned that the house is next to a military training base (literally), therefore most dogs will have a very stressful stay instead of the dream holiday....

We were really very sorry to see your comments, we felt that we'd done a fairly good job of describing the rather unique location of this property over the many years that we've marketed it. It's set below the level of the road (approx 30 steps and two gates to reach the property) and isn't available for children under 7 because of the cliffside location. Although you had no children staying, we are sorry that you felt your dogs were at risk. Tregantle Fort is around a mile and a half away along the coastline, it's used for occasional training (planned sessions are advertised on the parish council website www.sheviockparish.org.uk) - although we've found no record of planned training during your visit, so there may have been a last minute change. This hasn't caused a problem to date, but we're sorry if your dogs were distressed. The Owners have decided to replace the sofas following your comments, but when we visited this week (Jan 2017) we felt that the mattresses were in good condition - albeit one a firmer rating than the other - and we're sorry they didn't suit you. Had we known you preferred a softer bed, some mattress toppers could have been made available for you. Tanya, Customer Support...
